Highly specific inhibitor of protein kinase C (IC50 = 50 nM); requires light for activation. At higher concentrations (100 nM or greater), it has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis in vitro.

Calphostin C (UCN-1028C), a newly isolated compound from Cladosporium cladosporioides, is a potent and specific inhibitor of protein kinase C, because it was 1000 times more inhibitory to protein kinase C (IC50, 0.05 microM) than other protein kinases such as
Journal of neurosurgery, 83(6), 1008-1016 (1995-12-01)
Calphostin C acts at the regulatory domain as a highly selective inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC), and staurosporine acts at the catalytic domain as a nonspecific PKC inhibitor. The authors investigated the capacity of calphostin C and staurosporine to

Apoptosis was induced in human glioma cell lines by exposure to 100 nM calphostin C, a specific inhibitor of protein kinase C. Calphostin C-induced apoptosis was associated with synchronous down-regulation of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL as well as activation of caspase-3

The currently available treatment methods are ineffective in reducing mortality or improving outcomes in acute lung injury (ALI). The activation of protein kinase C alpha (PKCα) has recently been implicated in ALI development. We explored the potential therapeutic outcomes of
Protein kinase C (PKC) is a central component in signal transduction and growth control and might be an appropriate target for the chemotherapy of human brain tumors. This study demonstrates that the staurosporine derivative Ro 31-8220, a potent PKC inhibitor
